Carew

Famous quotes containing the word carew:

    Ask me no more where Jove bestows,
    When June is past, the fading rose;
    For in your beauty’s orient deep
    These flowers, as in their causes, sleep.

    Ask me no more whither do stray
    The golden atoms of the day;
    For in pure love heaven did prepare
    Those powders to enrich your hair.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)

    Yet, Saxham, thou within thy gate
    Art of thyself so delicate,
    So full of native sweets that bless
    Thy roof with inward happiness,
    As neither from nor to thy store
    Winter takes aught, or spring adds more.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)

    All things are lawful there that may delight
    Nature or unrestrained appetite.
    Like and enjoy, to will and act is one;
    We only sin when love’s rites are not done.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
